Le Mas de Peint

Wonderful romantic getaway on a secluded 550 hectare working farm, with traditional Camargue bulls and horses (but no flamingos, boo!). Great location from which to explore all Camargue has to offer. Absolutely impeccable service, beautiful spacious loft suite, gorgeous pool, delicious evening set menu with a talented chef and superb wine (thank you Margot!). We took the jeep ride with Richard and had lots of fun learning all about the property and its natural bounty. Numa, the darling German pointer will happily accompany you on walks around the property and even flop in your room for a nap. We are already planning our next stay!

This lovely hotel is part of a working farm which has bulls and horses alongside growing rice and barley. The original farmhouse has been converted into a very comfortable hotel with a swimming pool located in a very tranquil garden space. ||We arrived on a Monday and as the hotel restaurant does not open on Mondays (we were made aware of this when we booked) we brought a picnic supper which we enjoyed on the room’s terrace. There was so much bird life around the hotel it was a joy just sitting there taking it all in.||We stayed for four nights to explore the Camargue. In order to get our bearings and learn a little of the area we had booked a Jeep Safari which was offered by the hotel. We had a most interesting and engaging tour with Richard and learnt lots about the area, the estate and it’s farming activities.||The next day we went off exploring on the hotel’s bikes which was a great way to see the area and wildlife and thankfully the roads did not have too much vehicular traffic on them. ||At our first breakfast we met Axel who was looking after breakfast service. He was very engaging and offered us lots of helpful tips and pointers. He also made a bold claim that the chef was extremely good and we would have an amazing evening meal. Well, he was not wrong. We had three fantastic dinners at the hotel. It is a set menu and there is no choice however, there didn’t need to be a choice. From the first amuse bouche we were blown away with the food. On our first night the chef (sorry I didn’t get your name) came to each table and took the time to chat which we really appreciated. ||All in all a great hotel and hopefully we will return one day.

The Junior suite “Elegance” with the outside terrace catered perfectly to our style. A large bedroom with a large terrace to spend most of our time outside. The staff was excellent. The food delicious, comparable to a 1 star Michelin, and at a very reasonable price. If you are looking for a simple and quiet with a feel like home experience accompanied with a staff dedicated to you, that’s the place to pick.

Absolutely stunning! We will for sure be back at this beautiful Camarque Hotel. Everything and everyone were lovely and overall it was an amazing time here.

My husband and I spent two wonderful days at this beautiful property. The hotel (a converted farmhouse) is decorated in a warm, elegant non fussy way. We stayed in two different rooms, each one with comfortable beds, plush linens, towels, bathrobes, and guest amenities. There are lovely grand rooms in the hotel to relax and read many of the table books that are scattered around. Outside there is a gorgeous pool, surrounded by lawns and mature landscaping, huge trees, a small lake, and a large kitchen garden. Our host, Monsieur Bon, the owner of le Mas de Peint, graciously introduced himself to us one evening at dinner. A true personal touch that doesn’t go unappreciated. The front desk staff could not be friendlier or more helpful. We especially enjoyed Vincent, who gave us many good suggestions for exploring the region, and also, was incredibly knowledgeable about the traditions of the bulls and horses. Such a friendly engaging man. All the desk staff were warm and totally accommodating. I must say the heart and soul of this property has to be the food. Chef Juan Ipuz, and his team, simply took our stay to the next level! Originally, we had planned to stay one night but we were so impressed (positively blown away) by Chef’s food, we changed our plans and stayed another night. Chef Juan’s creativity and artistry are amazing. Every dish not only a feast for the eyes, but a feast for the pallet and soul. His kitchen is young, energetic, and quiet. I know quiet is an odd thing to say but, there was a gentleness about his preparation that conveyed itself to the food. Every plate was a perfectly crafted, beautifully plated and totally delicious. The kitchen garden keeps the ingredients incredibly fresh and totally seasonal. Chef also has a great sense of humor with his amuse bouche. One night a tiny “hamburger” was plated which was not only adorable but utterly delicious. The chef is also blessed with his sus chef (whose name I unfortunately have forgotten) and his wait staff the lovely, Tyfen, and her colleague, Margot. The entire service is run by these two hardworking charming women. Tyfen, was incredibly knowledgeable about what wines to pair with each dish, and both women work incredibly hard all the while maintaining a tidy, organized beautiful kitchen. (We were lucky enough to sit in the kitchen to get a behind the scenes experience of the dinner service). We cannot thank le Mas de Peint, and their staff enough for making our stay one of the most pleasant experiences of our trip France. We hope to return again in autumn. Merci, Merci, Merci!

We stayed here for 5 nights and loved the hotel. It is in a very lovely position. Our room was well appointed but it did not have full aircon only climate control so we found sleeping difficult. The restaurant is recommended and we were looked after very attentive staff, especially Leah and the lady who did the breakfasts. The hotel caters for families so many children were staying. Beware the mosquitos!

Lovely grounds and quaint post and beam rooms with second floor balcony bathroom with owner in residence to assure quality of experience. Breakfasts were typically plentiful with egg options to order. The premises are within a large active farming area and some distance from a town or village community. Dinner was understated yet well presented and local sourced

A great location, quiet, comfortable and excellent service. Food quality is excellent too. Staff are friendly and attentive. The property offers several activities all were well run and interesting. Definitely worth a stay
